REDDING, Calif. - Anyone over the age of 18-years-old and who lives in Shasta County will be getting the vaccine at the Redding Rancheria’s Tribal Health Center, but spots are already filled for Sunday’s clinic.
“When we looked at it as a tribal organization, we saw the majority of our patients that were Covid positive were between 20-years-old and 40-years-old,” said Glen Hayward, the Executive Director of Health Services. “That population is going around visiting our elders, they re visiting their families. So that best thing to do was to vaccinate as many people as possible.”

While the U.S. as a whole is just finding its stride administering the COVID-19 vaccine to its citizens, many Native American tribes – including the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians – are on a mean streak.
According to Cherity Bloom-Miller, the tribe’s clinical services director, the tribes have vaccinated roughly one-quarter of the 5,547 enrolled members, and about one-third of those who live in Oregon. As of March 5, the tribal government had given the Moderna vaccine to 3,000 people 18 and over, members and otherwise.
